Pull the color out of the hair
Many women with dark hair face a problem in lightening its color, so they resort to hair experts in salons, who in turn remove the dark dye from the hair, in a process called color pulling, which is by using chemicals that harm the health of the hair.
Hair color damage
Pulling color leads to many hair problems, which can be summarized in the following points:
- Pulling moisture out of the hair, which leads to its roughness.
- The hair becomes porous, which makes it vulnerable to breakage and fall out.
- Reduces the amount of natural melanin pigment in the hair, which will accelerate the appearance of gray hair.
- Infection with sensitivity and itching, or the appearance of a rash on the scalp.
As a result of these damages, women are looking for natural solutions to get rid of the dye without the color being pulled.
